　　2003 Text 3 Q 55

　　Many captive shippers also worry they will soon be hit with a round of huge rate increases. The railroad industry as a whole, despite its brightening fortunes, still does not earn enough to cover the cost of the capital it must invest to keep up with its surging traffic. Yet railroads continue to borrow billions to acquire one another, with Wall Street cheering them on.Consider the $10.2 billion bid by Norfolk Southern and CSX to acquire Conrail this year. Conrail’s net railway operating income in 1996 was just $427 million, less than half of the carrying costs of the transaction. Who’s going to pay for the rest of the bill? Many captive shippers fear that they will, as Norfolk Southern and CSX increase their grip on the market.

　　逐句详解

　　第一句

　　[1] The railroad industry as a whole, despite its brightening fortunes, still does not earn enough to cover the cost of the capital [2] it must invest to keep up with its surging traffic.

　　[1] 主句：The railroad industry（主）(as a whole), [despite its brightening fortunes]（状imtokentrx余额不足以支付矿工费，让步）, still does not earn（谓）[enough]（状，程度）[to cover the cost of the capital]（状，目的）

　　字面：铁路行业 | 整体而言 | 尽管其财富客观 | 仍然没有挣钱 | 足够 | 支付资本投入

　　译文：就整个铁路行业来说，尽管其财大气粗，但它的收入仍然不足以支付投入的资本

　　[2]修饰the capital的定语从句：it（主）must invest（谓）[to keep up with its surging traffic]（状，目的）.

　　字面：它（铁路）| 必须投入 | 来跟上急剧增长的交通

　　译文：它为了满足不断增长的运输需求而必须投入的（资本）

　　本句译文：就整个铁路行业来说，尽管其财大气粗，但它的收入仍然不足以支付满足不断增长的运输需要而投入的资金。

　　第二句

　　[Yet] railroads（主）continue to borrow（谓）billions（宾）[to acquire one another]（状，目的）, [with Wall Street cheering them on]（状，伴随）.

　　字面：然而 | 铁路公司 | 继续借贷 | 数十亿（美元）| 去彼此合并 | 同时华尔街为他们叫好

　　本句译文：然而铁路公司继续贷款数十亿美元来相互合并，华尔街则在一旁为他们欢呼叫好。

　　第三句Consider（谓）the $10.2 billion（宾）(bid by Norfolk Southern and CSX [to acquire Conrail this year]).

　　本句为祈使句

　　主干：Consider the $10.2 billion译为“想一想102亿美元吧”

　　定语：过去分词短语bid by Norfolk Southern and CSX，“南诺弗克公司和CSX公司所花的”

　　状语：不定式to acquire Conrail this year为过去分词bid的目的状语，“为了兼并康雷尔公司”

　　本句译文：想一想今年南诺弗克公司和CSX公司兼并康雷尔公司所花的102亿美元吧。

　　第四句

　　Conrail’s net railway operating income in 1996（主）was（系）just $427 million（表）, [less than half of the carrying costs of the transaction].

　　生词：net income 表示“净收入、纯收入”，与之相关的gross income表示“总收入、毛收入”

　　字面：康雷尔公司的 | 铁路运营 | 净收入 | 1996年的 | 是 | 仅仅4.27亿美元 | （这是）不到一半 | 运输成本 | 这种交易

　　本句译文：康雷尔公司1996年铁路运营纯收入仅为4.27亿美元，还不足这项业务运作成本的一半。

　　明日预告：

　　It is said that in England death is pressing, in Canada inevitable and in California optional. Small wonder. Americans’ life expectancy has nearly doubled over the past century. Failing hips can be replaced, clinical depression controlled, cataracts removed in a 30-minute surgical procedure. Such advances offer the aging population a quality of life that was unimaginable when I entered medicine 50 years ago. But not even a great health-care system can cure death—and our failure to confront that reality now threatens this greatness of ours.

　　56. What is implied in the first sentence?

　　[A] Americans are better prepared for death than other people.

　　[B] Americans enjoy a higher life quality than ever before.

　　[C] Americans are over-confident of their medical technology.

　　[D] Americans take a vain pride in their long life expectancy.
